Had the Bonneville out tonight, first time in a week, it was warmed right up, took it onto the highway, slowly accelerated TC no longer locks at 48 it locks at 54...last week it would go in at 48....i tried this about 10 time at any throttle it will not go in until 54 on the HUD

it depends on the engine load, and throttle angle, but locking at 54 is not normal.....

Matt..knowing you arre having transmission troubles I wouldn't doubt that the more you drive the car the worse the transmission will act.

It'* only a matter of time and how quickly things break down as to how soon you notice more problems.
